New subscriber here. Really like the theme, patterns, and colors you have chosen for your trip. Sounds like a wonderful adventure. I hope to see your patterns made up. Blue is my favorite color.
Love all your choices Sam, I think I may have to look at all of these patterns myself. Some new to me designers as well, so that'll have me falling down a rabbit hole 😂
I do love this challenge, Sam! I don't tend to use patterns any more, as I've made my own blocks and they don't count, but I'll be sewing from my stash during March, so I'll be with you in spirit 😊 Btw your hair looks fabulous 😍
I really like this challenge. Followed it last year and got a ton of free patterns downloads from it. This year, I hope to take part as I’m making a Paddington top this week/possibly making it into a dress. I also have some tshirt patterns I want to try out.
Super pretty patterns Sam...thank you so very much for sharing these. I have downloaded all of them. Sew Frugal a couple of years ago was what started me on this sewing journey. Couldn't figure out how to get the Edith to download in English. xx Karen
Love the pompom vest. I have been looking for a pattern like that. I am older and if they fit right, I do wear vests without a shirt underneath. I make them in fun quilting cotton and they have more coverage and structure than other summer tops
Nice finds! 😊 I like the square neck dress from Tiana’s Closet! A lot of tops and dresses in that style tend to have a neckline that exposes your upper back, which I’m not a fan of wearing. I especially like the Odell dress/top!😍…I wonder if it might be fairly easy to bring in the back so there’s a tie at the neckline rather than the open upper back. 🤔 Wishing you safe and happy travels when you go on your trip! 🤗❤️
Thank you for all the information Sam! There are some lovely free patterns there 😊. Im going to Malaga in mid March too and then hiking around Ronda at the end of April - we obviously both have good taste in holiday destinations ☺
Great video, I’m sure your capsule wardrobe will look fab, practical, comfortable and smart. Thanks for sharing some interesting patterns, love the dress and waistcoat in particular. I also need to get to grips with with uploading on instagram.
Thanks for finding some new free patterns. I really like that square neck dress. You will have a lovely wardrobe for your trip. I've already downloaded a tshirt pattern and a girl's dress pattern.
Great plans! I share similar colorings as you, and I’m into blues as well. Very inspiring video, great fabric pairing. Thank you for sharing some pattern companies that are not well known. I’m looking forward to see how your plans turn out. I love a free pattern! Thank you also (and Ruan!) for hosting this chance again ❤
Great theme for your pattern choices and so helpful to hear your thoughts. I need a pattern for a classic, current vest and the Pompom looks perfect. 🎉
Thanks for the patterns, my favourite was the blouse and I have downloaded it. As for the t-shirt dress, you hardly need any instructions, it's just a t-shirt but longer. Have a good holiday.
thank you for your ideas , but you need to buy the made by oranges magazine to get the code for the free pattern, so its not really free and I understand you said we couldnt use patterns from magazines ??
Love the theme you went for this year, and your pattern pics are fab! Hope you have time to get most of these made before your trip (and can't wait to see the reveal pics at the end of the month with such a beautiful backdrop like Seville 🤩) Looking forward to joining for the fourth year in a row! Thanks to you both for bringing this challenge back again this year 🤗
Lovely! You have a couple of patterns there which I haven’t seen the other sewists using. Can’t go wrong with blues and whites/creams. They always coordinate so well. I’d love to see the entire wardrobe down the track, with what you pull out of your cupboard to coordinate & fill in the gaps. Sounds like a fabulous trip.
Some lovely patterns there Sam. I'm a v plain fabric girl myself, so love the different blue tones you have and think they'll make a lovely capsule wardrobe for your trip. I've been to Rhonda and it is truly something to see. Have a fab time ❤
@Frugalisama Thank you - that link worked. When I used the one under the video I ended up at a t-shirt dress. I did a search for Edith and nothing came up. I really like that top so I'm glad I was able to get it. 🙏
